Can someone please explain to me how a listed screenplay can be 'loved' if the Script Revolutioner who appreciated it hasn't, as My Statistics confirm, viewed the script, let alone downloaded it.
I did recently give someone permission to produce a short which he hadn't viewed/downloaded on Script Revolution, however he'd stumbled across it on SimplyScripts - and later approached me via this site. But in the case of the former screenplay, it hasn't been listed anywhere other than Script Revolution.
Drongo Bum - this is a case of someone hitting the heart logo, as opposed to requests to read. In fact, the majority of my scripts are set for anyone to read. The visitor just needs to download them without asking for my authority. I just can't work out how one can press the heart button if the record shows they've never been near the page!
I am a paid member - but wouldn't have thought that's a paid members only perk.
When submitting a new screenplay, tick the 'Bypass Read Request System' option - the third but last option - and your script is there for anyone, I presume, to read.
You can favourite a script from any of the pages it's listed on, so that's how it will be happening without them viewing the actual detail page. I've found some people will favourite a script over just the logline. Their reasons are their reasons. It's not something I can really police.
Yes, some people make read requests and then never follow them up. It happens. I know some work to a time limit.
Being able to bypass the read request system is indeed a Rockstar only benefit.
Thanks CJ. Wasn't suggesting the system be policed - merely curious. Thanks for explaining.
